Market Overview
The energy drinks market is projected to witness a CAGR of 9.12% during the forecast period, 2021 – 2026.
After the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, the fitness clubs and other sporting arenas were shut down in major parts of the world. This move was introduced by the governments to limit the spread of the coronavirus, which subsequently affected the sales of energy drinks in the global market in 2020. However, the consumers are still clinging to workouts and are engaging in various exercise regimes in the comfort of their homes, leading to a continued need for energy drinks. Moreover, at the end of 2020, many economies removed the strict lockdown measures, which resulted in the opening of fitness clubs and sports clubs, thus resulting in the recovery of energy drinks sales.
Increased urbanization, rising disposable incomes, and growing health consciousness among consumers increased the demand for non-carbonated drinks. Energy drinks are widely consumed by adolescents due to their claims of improving performance, endurance, and alertness. At the same time, long and erratic working hours and the increasing occurrence of social gatherings are driving Indian consumers toward the consumption of energy drinks.
Moreover, growth in the number of health-conscious consumers and increasing consumer awareness regarding active lifestyles, along with growing rates of lifestyle-related diseases, inspired health-oriented consumers to opt for healthy and sugar-free drinks. The energy drinks market is also projected to grow due to an increase in promotional and advertisement strategies.

Key Market Trends
Product Innovation is the Key to Increased Consumption
Despite stringent laws and a heavily regulated environment, the market for energy drinks is recording growth owing to the high level of product innovation by players. This also helps the players address the requirements of consumers. Energy drinks are especially popular among college students and corporates as a substitute for coffee, which helps them stay alert during work. Moreover, these energy drinks are gaining popularity as they are used as mixers in popular alcoholic drinks. Energy drinks, such as Rock Star, Monster, and Red Bull, are promoting the image of strength, energy, and speed. The sleek and colorful packaging of energy drinks is attracting consumers, primarily due to the cool and trendy factor. Furthermore, these energy drinks help in balancing the level of taurine, an amino acid, which is naturally found in the body. The level of taurine is expected to decline significantly during extreme physical exertion and high stress. Manufacturers of energy drinks are focusing on expanding their product lines by introducing new flavors and new categories to encourage frequent consumption and drive the market studied.

North America Dominates the Energy Drinks Market
The high consumption of energy drinks and the massive coffee culture in the United States have pushed the notion of energy shots into the mainstream, which is a major factor driving the sales of energy drinks in the country. Energy drinks are an integral part of social gatherings, parties, and celebrations in the United States. Manufactures such as Red Bull, Monster Beverages, and others are offering their energy drinks in multiple flavors and two major packagings, which include PET bottles and cans, providing consumers with a wide range to choose their suitable drinks from, in terms of both packaging and flavor. Furthermore, soda consumption is substantially declining in the country, which in turn, has provided a great opportunity for manufactures such as Coca-Cola and PepsiCo, who are trying to leverage the name recognition of their legacy brands by making a bigger dent in the growing energy drink category. For instance, in 2019, Coco-Cola announced the launch of its first energy drink under its brand in four variants, which include Coca-Cola Energy, Coca-Cola Energy Zero Sugar, Coca-Cola Energy Cherry, and Coca-Cola Energy Cherry Zero Sugar.
